What are the minimum requirements for Amdapor ?

Can someone tell me what are minimum req for a dragoon to do Amdapor keep?

I'm also wondering about this as well - but for whm. I keep hearing everyone complain about people going in with af1 and raging about it. So what's the "correct" progression of gear/tokens? And I'm not going to get ALL darklight before going into AK... that's a ridiculous number of runs and you still get ToP doing AK. Should I just prioritize jewelery..? I have bad luck with getting weapon drops too. Is the lvl 44 green weapon from GC alright for AK/spamming Ifrit hardmode until I get an Ifrit weapon? (I don't actually know when the hardmode primal fights unlock so forgive me if I have orders incorrect).

I think it's silly that you have to do AK before unlocking the lvl 50 stuff from GC. :/ I'm almost maxed with my credits - I'd love to spend some on lvl 50 gear.

Just finished Main storyline. I'm farming the tomes right now for Darklight. Is that the correct way to go? What should I be doing after finishing the main story?

I think this is the biggest issue, to be honest. They should probably swap it to Wanderer's Palace.

that place drops like lvl 49 gear right?

AF and Ifrit or better weapon should be good.. However people will still bitch but as a DD its more about zerging the mobs down in AK and not getting hit with AoEs and one shots.. Just because a few people say you can't do something doesn't mean it's not possible. Hell Ifrit is a prime example of that. I've killed Ifrit many times without BLM or SMN but A LOT of people drop if you don't have one..

I can say with certainty that your original AF gear, with a level 40-45 weapon will end in failure. The weapon is the most important for all classes, including healing, and you don't realize just how much it adds until you go from using a level 40 staff and Cure 1 doing 500, to switching it for a level 50 weapon and having cure 1 do 700. Not to mention the increases to the rest of your healing spells.

Now a decent level 50 weapon with your AF gear isn't too bad for AK. The DPS may struggle a bit here and there, but for the most part you should manage to squeeze by. However if you are having troubles, go back to Wanderers Palace and farm that for a bit. The gear is literally 5 Item Levels below that of AK. Or you could run the 8 man dungeons for the storyline again and just stock up on Philosophy stones and buy some gear from the vendors with it. I personally started with the jewelry, as it was my biggest upgrade at the time.

Nope.. It drops GL 55 stuff

The requirements are what you end up with after finishing your story line imo. The dungeon is not hard. The only real threat I see is for the dps on Demon Wall.

If you don't dps down the wall fast enough you die. I know my friends and my self did the first crawl with pretty much what was stated above. AF1 and we beat it.

It does get a lot easier as you gear up but, anyone that says you have to have more then af1 is completely full of crud.

My party was able to beat it just fine when I was wearing full AF with GC lance. We did wipe few times but that was my first run.
